Herman's Head
After seeing Herman’s Hermits starring Peter Noone I kind of want to start a cover band and call it Herman Munster’s Hermits. We’ll play Herman’s Hermits songs while dressed up like the classic TV characters. |

And that's the way it was
Walter Cronkite, that television news anchorman of the networks' golden age who came to be called "the most trusted man in America," died Friday. He was 92. |

In honor of Harry Potter, my vegan soft serve sundae this week is all about magic! And, it's happier than the last movie :)
Peanut Butter Vanilla Twist soft serve with a dark chocolate Pocky Wand, served with every flavor jelly beans! Will it be skunk, vomit or peach? There's also pencil, baby wipe and booger flavors.
Yum?
(pocky wand not vegan... We don't know of any comparable substitutes?)

Journey
Title: Journey Author: Hecate_12 Word Count: 171 Series: Voyager Characters: Neelix – set after “Caretaker” Neelix had always been good at grabbing an opportunity when it came to him – it was one of the reasons he had managed to stay alive this long. He was pretty sure now that grabbing the opportunity to come aboard this incredible ship with its crew of lost aliens was definitely one of his better decisions, he was sure of that. Add to the mix the brave, heroic actions that he had taken to make sure that he had his Kes along with him and all in all Neelix felt he was onto a winner. He was looking forward to living on this ship, to maybe one day seeing the Alpha Quadrant and this great “Federation” the Captain talked about with such reverence with his own eyes. It was going to be one hell of a journey, he could tell. The ship was truly wonderful. It was a pity they didn’t seem to have a kitchen on board, but he’d soon fix that particular problem. He was pretty industrious, after all. Current Mood:  sleepy |

My sisters (+niece) and their Evilness
I want to kill my sisters and niece. (I had some really choice cuss words picked out, but I decided against using them.) Anyway, I haven't been this angry since I-don't-know-when and REALLY WANT TO PUSH THEM OFF THE ROOF OF THE HOUSE. Speaking of my sisters, one of them got in touch with one of my old friends, Kyle, who used to live down the steet from us. Apparently he remembers me, BUT NEVER CAME TO SEE ME. What's the deal, Kyle? We were best friends! Come say hi! I think we're going to the same high school. ETA: I'm about ready to fucking drop-kick my niece.

I'm feeling pretty good! I put in the application to rent a 2-bedroom 1 1/2 bath apartment in Mar Vista this morning, and I think it's a pretty fucking great place. It's only a few blocks north of Venice, which means I'll have a nice area to take morning strolls in. It's not very far from the farmer's market either, which is another bonus, as I'm trying to eat healthier. The view from the bedroom windows is kind of the best part. It looks down onto two backyards and has these lovely branches with tiny white flowers creeping into the view. One house is a rickety old thing with Tibetan flags hanging from the balcony, and as dorky as it sounds, I think I'm in love with the view. It reminds me of something I'd see in SF or Berkeley. I don't think anyone can see into the bedrooms from the outside, which is a MAJOR plus because I love leaving the windows and shades open whenever possible.
The future is looking good! I'm trying not to get my hopes up TOO much in case we don't get the place, but whatevs. I'm going to be hopeful for now.
I think the roomie situation will be good too. I'm going to be living with the older sister of a guy I went to middle and high school with. We talked on the phone last night and she seems super cool. Plus, her girlfriend lives in San Diego, so they'll be alternating weekends. I definitely don't mind having another lady in the house every other weekend considering I'll have every other weekend totally on my own.
Cross your fingers for me that this works out!

A rather glorious sunny winters day was had by me. No work today, as I was keeping my day free, for an adventure that didn't happen. Far from perturbed by his not entirely unexpected turn of events, I took off for some op-shoppery in far flung Trafalgar, where I bought a shirt. Yawn. After this I headed to Blue Rock Lake and did lunch which was pretty damned nice indeed.  See the niceness? I embraced it. No one goes to the lake in winter, I like that. I built an Owl nest box a couple of years back, never got around to actually wacking it up a tree. Last night, while drinking beer outside by the fire with Laurence, I heard a Southern Boobook . I thought, the poor bastard might be looking for a home ( the owl, not Laurence) so today was the day! Look no further homeless owl! heres a great little one bedroom place, rent free with views.   After presenting this little gift to mother nature, my irony bush began to blaze. Getting out of my ute out the front of my small blue house I was attacked yes ATTACKED by freakin plovers or, masked lapwings not that anyone calls them that. Everyone just calls em fucking plovers. And with good reason. I hate plovers. They swoop you if you get close to their nest, which is on the ground in an open field. Put your nest in a tree, stupid dickhead bird. They have spurs on their wings' leading edge, like sharp spikes that stick out ready to gouge you in the face. What sort of fucked up bird needs attack spikes??? So I was swooped repeatedly by this pair of airborne crazy birds and they made me mad. I got back in the ute and chased em around the paddock to the point of exhaustion (mine) They swooped my ute a lot. I really hope I ran over their eggs. I also hope that my friends the owls, appreciative of their new home, rock on over this evening and kick some plover ass. Plovers are the escaped mental patients of the avian world. I think there might be a Field Naturalists meeting on tonight, which I would like to attend. I won't mention chasing the plovers with my ute to anyone there. Mind you, I might earn some field naturalist street cred with the installation of my nest box. Especially as it is in a tree on another farmers property and I didnt ask permission to put it up there. Guerrilla nest boxing. I am at the extreme sports end of field naturalism... naturalisation..nature. y'know what I mean. edit to add.Just found the nest. i squashed the eggs. now they are really really mad. This one wanted to sink it's

Iwillnotgothroughthemotions. I don't wanna go through the motions anymore. I think now, more than ever, I need some being above me to help me get through all this crap. I need to surrender everything to Him, and not try to fix everything and I need to accept the fact that I am not perfect, but I will do good. It's all I can do. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLJF9vaIJ_0 |

Sick
I wish I knew why my head has felt like a heavy boulder for the last four or five days. I sleep like the dead, wake up exhausted with this heavy head. Can't do much except sit at the computer and click click click. Sometimes I read, but not for long, because it makes my head heavier. Other than that, I have zero energy for ANYTHING. It's hot, but not THAT hot, I'm taking all my meds, eating properly, and am well hydrated. So wtf is going on? I _hate_ this. Time to make a doc appointment.

True or False Solar Science
A coworker told me that the temperature of space is hundreds of degrees below 0F. Further, he said one could be right next to the sun and freeze without a spacesuit if something was blocking the sun--say, a magically flame-retardant piece of plywood. I don't see how this is possible but nonetheless, the idea of sneaking up to the sun with only a brolly as protection against being incinerated stuck in my brain. Now it's on paper and can leave me alone.  sing it: "The sun is a mass of incandescent gas, a gigantic nuclear furnace" |

Writer's Block: Dream Vacations
First and foremost I want to take a trip back east to see my Grammy before she dies. She's 93. I also want to see my sister, my eldest daughter, my grandkids, my cousin Joe, Tracey, Laura, and everybody. Then a trip to San Francisco, stay in a hotel, rent a car, enjoy. Finally, the piece de resistance... Hawaii. But not tourist Hawaii. Slack Key Hawaii. Uke Hawaii. Hula Hawaii. CULTURAL Hawaii. |

Weekly Wednesday-Ask a Photographer...
Howdy Amigos! Did I just say "Howdy"? Yeah... I guess I did! So, what's been going on out there? It's been kinda crazy around the Sipper household, as last week I caught some gnarly summer cold, plus my ears sealed up so I couldn't hear anything out of my right ear for a few days. If you follow me on Twitter, I'm sure you've heard all about this! And now, Dana caught whatever I had, and it's knocked her out of commission this week! So, if you are looking for our regularly scheduled Photo Blog entries... you might need to wait until next week! :-) That being said, I've decided to start something new here on the blog, just to see how it goes. It may go nowhere... it may turn out to be fun, and hopefully, a little informative. So here we go... Ask a Photographer! Do you have questions about photography? Want to know more about any of the services we offer? How we do the things we do? Why Nikon is better than Canon? (Just kidding Canon people... sorta! :-)) Pretty much anything! Go ahead and drop a question for us in the comments section, and we'll answer them in next week's Wednesday post. That's all I have for now! See ya next time! J+D |

So, just as I was settling into being back in Los Angeles and looking forward to a relatively stress-free summer, my idiot landlord gives us a notice that says we signed an 11-month lease, not a 12-month, and so we gotta be outta here by August 9th. Are you kidding me? He says we specifically asked for an 11-month (we did not), and therefore we have no choice but to peace out by the 9th. Thank the lord that by a strange turn of events I will be living with the older sister of a kid who I went to middle school and high school with (a kid who also bugged the crap out of me at the time, but has turned out not to be so bad, he's just a theatre kid). I've heard that his sis is super smart and she seems pretty mellow and hopefully fun. Only prob is that she will be in Massachusetts until August 20th, so I have to find the apartment for us. Yesterday the hunt began and I saw two places. One of which was pretty nice, the other sucked. I'm going to see another in Culver City tonight that's a little bit out of our price range, but we'll see. I gotta make some phone calls to more places today. It's really hard to go apartment hunting when you're working 9-5. Although this is only more crap for me to stress about, I'm excited about moving out earlier if everything works out as planned. I'll hopefully have about 10 days to myself to get settled and finally have a nice 2 bedroom apartment somewhere in lovely West LA. A place that I can make homey! And have some plants in! I cannot wait to be out of Westwood. |
